Re: Namespaces in XML 1.0

Hi Richard,

Maybe some of the following two minor things is not yet known.

1. section 3 ... Element names MUST NOT have the prefix xmlns ...
    * change "MUST NOT" to "must not" and change format to italics.

2. The document 
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/PER-xml-names-20060614/Overview.html links XML 
1.1 instead XML 1.0

here 
  * http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/PER-xml-names-20060614/Overview.html#NT-NCName
and here  
  * http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/PER-xml-names-20060614/Overview.html#ns-qualnames

change
 a. http://www.w3.org/TR/xml11#NT-Name to http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#NT-Name
 b. http://www.w3.org/TR/xml11#NT-NameChar to http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#NT-NameChar
 
 c. http://www.w3.org/TR/xml11#NT-NameStartChar --> does not exist in XML 1.0

     - maybe change/insert one of the following into the document

i)
[6]       NCNameStartChar       ::=       (Letter 
<http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#NT-Letter> | '_' )

ii)
[6]       NCNameStartChar       ::=       [A-Z] | "_" | [a-z] | 
[#xC0-#xD6] | [#xD8-#xF6] | [#xF8-#x2FF] | [#x370-#x37D] | 
[#x37F-#x1FFF] | [#x200C-#x200D] | [#x2070-#x218F] | [#x2C00-#x2FEF] | 
[#x3001-#xD7FF] | [#xF900-#xFDCF] | [#xFDF0-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#xEFFFF]

iii)
NameStartChar   ::=  (Letter <http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#NT-Letter> | '_' 
| ':')

iv)
NameStartChar   ::=   ":" | [A-Z] | "_" | [a-z] | [#xC0-#xD6] | 
[#xD8-#xF6] | [#xF8-#x2FF] | [#x370-#x37D] | [#x37F-#x1FFF] | 
[#x200C-#x200D] | [#x2070-#x218F] | [#x2C00-#x2FEF] | [#x3001-#xD7FF] | 
[#xF900-#xFDCF] | [#xFDF0-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#xEFFFF]

regards
Konrad
